国内英语资讯:China, Greece to pool wisdom for community with shared future for mankind

Both Greece and China stand for the principles that different civilizations seek common ground while reserving differences, learn from each other, carry out communication and dialogue and co-exist peacefully, he said.

Greece is strongly against the so-called "clash of civilizations" theory, the president said, because civilizations in the true sense do not clash with one another and clashes do not solve any problem.

It is both absurd and harmful if a country makes its national policy based on the theory of "clash of civilizations."

China has made a forceful fightback against the theories of "clash of civilizations" and "a strong county is bound to seek hegemony" in light of its cultural tradition and the fact that it is now ever more open, advanced and developed, he said.

In a world full of uncertainties, China has offered very useful reference and plans for solving global issues by upholding peace, harmony and balance, he said.

Pavlopoulos said his country will continue to staunchly support China in safeguarding China's core interests, looks forward to strengthening cooperation with China in such areas as trade and economy and culture, and will actively participate in the joint construction of the Belt and Road.

He said he believes that Xi's visit will usher in a new era for Greece-China relations and lift the relations to a new height.

Greece is ready to join hands with China to promote the development of Europe-China relations, boost the cooperation between CEECs and China, and make joint contributions to promoting international fairness and justice as well as development and progress of mankind.
